Shares of Rivian Automotive surged more than 18% on Friday as it continued to rally after the electric vehicle (EV) maker reported better-than-expected quarterly deliveries early this week.

What happened After a tumultuous year so far, Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ: RIVN) stock is making a stunning comeback. The elective vehicle (EV) stock jumped 13.1% in June, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence, but that rally may have confirmed its bottom

What happened After falling consistently over the past few months, shares of Nio (NYSE: NIO) bounced back swiftly to gain a solid 28.7% in June, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence.

The benchmark S&P 500 inched higher on Friday in choppy trading after a mixed employment report signaled resilience in the labor market in the face of the Federal Reserve's aggressive monetary tightening.

Tesla ( NASDAQ:TSLA ) stock has risen significantly (see the chart below) so far this year thanks to its  record deliveries. However, the growth rate of EV (electric vehicle) sales slowed in the U.S. during the first half of 2023, indicating that Tesla could implement more price cuts to stimulate demand. This could pressure margins further and limit the upside in its stock price. Citing data from Motor Intelligence, a  Wall Street Journal report highlighted that EV sales increased by 50% in the first half of 2023 compared to a 71% increase in the first half of 2022. Furthermore, the first-half sales growth rate was lower than the 65% increase in EV sales in 2022.  The moderation in sales growth rate has led to an increase in unsold EV inventory at dealerships. This comes as a surprise, as Tesla and other EV makers announced price cuts and promotions to accelerate demand.  More Price Cuts on the Horizon  Tesla implemented price cuts this year to drive volumes. However, its focus on pushing volumes higher came at the cost of its margins. While Tesla boasts of industry-leading margins, these margins have consistently trended lower over the past several quarters. Even though Tesla’s deliveries remained strong, they have trailed production numbers for the past five consecutive quarters, suggesting that the company could announce  more price cuts in the future.  Tesla’s CEO  Elon Musk is ready to let go of  some automotive margins to drive volumes. During the Q1 conference call, Musk said the company could recover margins from service, autonomy, supercharging, and improved production efficiency.  Commenting on Tesla’s deliveries and margins,  Mark Delaney of Goldman Sachs said that he expects pricing to decline further to support volume. Delaney reiterated a Hold rating on TSLA stock on July 2. He added that his Hold recommendation reflects “additional pricing reductions and full valuation.”  What is the 12-Month Price Target for Tesla? While pressure on margins remains a concern, Tesla’s leadership in the EV space, benefits from the ramp-up in production and deliveries, and improvement in China (the world’s largest EV market) are positives. The EV giant is also expected to gain from in-house battery production, supercharging opportunities, and the launch of lower-priced models that position it well to deliver strong growth in the long term.  TSLA stock has received 13 Buy, 13 Hold, and five Sell recommendations for a Moderate Buy Sell rating. The average TSLA stock price target of $229.31 suggests 17.08% downside potential from current levels. Disclosure
